    Default job background
    Description


    Brock and Calder Landscape Recovery Senior Agriculture Advisor

    Background

    The Wyre Rivers Trust is a registered charity with a remit to improve the ecological status of

    the River Wyre and its catchment.

    Founded by three angling clubs and supported by many community groups, the Trust started small

    with localised projects to improve habitat, especially spawning conditions, for all fish species and completed

    with contractors and volunteers. However, since 2013 the Trust has grown, became host of the Wyre Waters

    Catchment Partnership and is now delivering works at the catchment scale with a host of far-reaching

    benefits.

    Projects address a range of issues impacting upon biodiversity, water quality, and water

    quantity, and tackle these with solutions such as natural flood management, habitat creation and habitat

    connectivity. The Trust has recently created an Integrated Catchment Plan containing a comprehensive list of priorities

    within the Wyre catchment, reviewed, and agreed by our partners. Following this process, the trust was

    successful in securing funding to support the Brock and Calder Landscape Recovery Project, one of a number of national

    projects working to deliver the highest tier of the Environmental Land Management Schemes. Within this

    project, there are five posts which WRT will recruit for within the first 6 months of the project development

    phase.

    To lead on engagement with the ~25 land managers involved in the project, we require a Senior

    Agriculture Advisor. The post holder will be expected to work closely with a range of groups including

    farmers (both owner occupiers and tenants), landowners and land managers (including local authorities). Within this

    role, the SAA will be expected to provide detailed advice and guidance on land management, sustainability,

    emerging markets (I.E Carbon). farm resilience and farm business planning. It is expected that this advice will

    lead to successful codesign of implementation plans for each farm involved within the project,

    which can be taken forward and synthesised to form the backbone of the land management plan for the BCLR Delivery Phase. It is

    paramount that the SAA ensures the needs of farmers, farming, and farm businesses as part of their role –

    resilient and sustainable food production and farm businesses are one of the key foundations of this project.

    The role will be based at the Wyre RT Offices at Myerscough College, Lancashire. The candidate

    will be expected to work across the entire catchment and a large amount of time within any given week will be

    spent outside. The officer will report to the Brock and Calder Landscape Recovery Project Manager & Wyre

    Rivers Trust General Manager.

    Job Purpose:

    The Senior Agriculture Advisor (SAA) will be directly responsible for liaison with all land

    managers within the project. The role will focus on the development of an effective and unique relationship with

    each land manager, collaborating closely with them to co-design implementation plans for each farm. When coalesced

    with implementation plans from each other participant, these implementation plans will form the

    backbone of the land management plan. The SAA will also be responsible for ensuring that the needs of their

    farm business are assessed against any proposed actions within the implementation phase. This will help to

    guarantee the sustainability and resilience of each farm business within the project, securing the outcomes

    of the project throughout the implementation phase and beyond.

    Closing Date: Friday 10th May 2024

    Job Start Date: Monday 1st of July 2024
